Stem cell lenses for chronic eye graft-versus-host disease
Part of Eyes & vision, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This trial tests a lens made from stem cells to treat dry, painful eyes caused by chronic graft-versus-host disease (cGVHD) after a stem cell transplant. It may help people whose current treatments aren't working well.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 65 years old.
- You have had a stem cell transplant at least 3 months ago.

- Standard eye treatments haven't helped enough after 1 week.
- You are generally well enough to do daily activities (Karnofsky score over 60).

This trial tests if gentle electrical stimulation around the eye can help relieve dry eye symptoms caused by chronic graft versus host disease (a complication after a stem cell or bone marrow transplant). It is for people with moderate to severe dry eye who have not had recent eye surgeries or certain other eye problems.
This trial tests an eye drop solution for people with chronic dry eye caused by graft-versus-host disease after a stem cell transplant. It aims to see if the drops can reduce eye discomfort and improve the eye surface.
This study looks at how common and how severe corneal nerve-related dryness is in people with chronic graft-vs-host disease (GVHD) after a stem cell transplant. It may help doctors understand which eye problems are most typical and how best to recognize them early.
This trial tests whether stem cell injections into the eye can help people with severe dry eye caused by graft-versus-host disease that hasn't gotten better with standard treatments. It aims to reduce eye pain and improve vision.
This trial tests a special contact lens made from stem cells to treat dry eye caused by Sjögren's syndrome. It may help if standard treatments like artificial tears or steroid drops haven't worked.
This study tests whether a new eye drop (rhPRG4) can safely reduce dry eye symptoms caused by graft-versus-host disease (GVHD). It compares the active drops to an inactive placebo to see if they provide better relief.
